These quotes about happiness mirror my belief that happiness, true happiness, is the reason we are here on Earth. The personal ways that we allow our true happiness are unique, part of our life story.
When you choose to feel really good, as good as you can in each moment, you contribute to the collective happiness consciousness. It helps uplift others, too.
You deserve to be unconditionally happy, and blissful even! In fact, it is your true nature! You were one with bliss before you were born, and you can allow that bliss now on Earth.
I hope these quotes encourage you to allow yourself to be the happiness that you naturally are!
"I'm going to be happy. I'm going to skip. I'm going to be glad. I'm
going to smile a lot. I'm going to be easy. I'm going to count my
blessings. I'm going to look for reasons to feel good. I'm going to dig
up positive things from the past. I'm going to look for positive things
where I stand. I'm going to look for positive things in the future. It
is my natural state to be a happy person. It's natural for me to love
and to laugh. This is what is most natural for me. I am a happy person!"
Abraham/Esther Hicks
”Happiness is the meaning and purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.”
Aristotle
"Happiness is the sense that one matters."
Sarah Trimmer
“Be a dynamo of irrepressible joy!”
Shri Haidakhan Babaji
"Clear your mind, focus on something happy, and make it a powerful
memory, the happiest you can remember. Let it completely fill you up."
Harry Potter - Harry teaching the kids in "Dumbledore's Army"
“I am a happy camper so I guess I’m doing something right. Happiness
is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you,
but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit
softly on your shoulder.”
Henry David Thoreau
"The great Western disease is, ‘I'll be happy when… When I get the
money. When I get a BMW. When I get this job.’ Well, the reality is, you
never get to when. The only way to find happiness is to understand that
happiness is not out there. It's in here. And happiness is not next
week. It's now."
Marshall Goldsmith
"You will never be happier than you expect. To change your happiness, change your expectation."
Bette Davis
”Don’t rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only
you can be responsible for that. If you can’t love and respect
yourself-no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you
are-completely; the good and the bad-and make changes as YOU see fit-not
because you think someone else wants you to be different.”
Stacey Charter
"Being happy is the cornerstone of all that you are! Nothing is more
important than that you feel good! And you have absolute and utter
control about that because you can choose the thought that makes you
worry or the thought that makes you happy; the things that thrill you,
or the things that worry you. You have the choice in every moment."
Abraham/Esther Hicks
”There is only one cause of unhappiness: the false beliefs you have
in your head, beliefs so widespread, so commonly held, that it never
occurs to you to question them.”
Anthony de Mello
”Ever since happiness heard your name, it has been running through the streets trying to find you.”
Hafiz
”The past is dead. The future is imaginary. Happiness can only be in the Eternal Now Moment.”
Ken Keyes, Jr.

going for happiness first. If we did, everything else would follow."
Deepak Chopra

Leonardo DiCaprio
”The secret of happiness is freedom. The secret of freedom is courage.”
Thucydides
”Expect the best; convert problems into opportunities; be
dissatisfied with the status quo; focus on where you want to go, instead
of where you’re coming from; and most importantly, decide to be happy,
knowing it’s an attitude, a habit gained from daily practice, and not a
result or payoff.”
Denis Waitley
"At the very instant that you think, 'I am happy,' a chemical
messenger translates your emotion, which has no solid existence whatever
in the material world, into a bit of matter so perfectly attuned to
your desire that literally every cell in your body learns of your
happiness and joins in."
Deepak Chopra
"Free yourself from the responsibility of making others happy."
Stephen C. Paul

Robert Muller
"I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the
very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited
experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of
others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close,
warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It
helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the
strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter. It is the principal
source of success in life. Since we are not solely material creatures,
it is a mistake to place all our hopes for happiness on external
development alone. The key is to develop inner peace."
Dalai Lama
”Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to
success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”
Albert Schweitzer
"Your happiness is the most significant contribution that you
could make. In your reaching for happiness, you are opening a vortex
which makes you an avenue for the Well-being to flow through you. And
anything that is your object of attention under those conditions,
benefits by the infusion of your Well-being."
Abraham/Esther Hicks
”We live in an ascending scale when we live happily, one thing leading to another in an endless series.”
Robert Louis Stevenson
”Happiness is something that comes into our lives through doors we don’t even remember leaving open.”
Rose Lane
”Praise and blame, gain and loss, pleasure and sorrow come and go
like the wind. To be happy, rest like a giant tree, in the midst of
them all.”
Buddha
"We're so engaged in doing things to achieve purposes of outer
value that we forget the inner value, the rapture that is associated
with being alive, is what it is all about."
Joseph Campbell
”The amount of happiness that you have depends on the amount of freedom you have in your heart.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
“Rules for Happiness: something to do, someone to love, something to hope for.”
Immanuel Kant
"Nobody else knows your reason for being. You do. Your bliss
guides you to it. When you follow your bliss, when you follow your path
to joy, your conversation is of joy, your feelings are of joy — you're
right on the path of that which you intended when you came forth into
this physical body."
Abraham/Esther Hicks
”We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.”
Anne Frank
"Be happy. Remember cause and effect are the same event. You
don't have to wait for a reason to be happy in order to know you prefer
to be happy. Create the effect of being happy, and you will attract into
your lives all of the causes to support the happiness you have
created....just because you want to."
Bashar/Darryl Anka
”If you knew everything was really was all right, and that it
always has a happy ending, then you would not feel trepidacious about
your future. Everything is really so very all right! If you could
believe and trust that, then, immediately everything would automatically
and instantly become all right.”
Abraham/Esther Hicks
"It is our basic right to be a happy person, happy family, and eventually a happy world. That should be our goal."

Thich Nhat Hanh
"Always, when you know what you don't want, that's when the rocket of
desire is born of what you do want. That is the fruit of your
experience. Now pluck it and savor it and enjoy it. Visualize it, and
find the feeling place of it. And live happily ever after, once you get
the hang of this."
Abraham/Esther Hicks
“You’re happy when you help others become happy.”
Dalai Lama
